ZESCO United Edge Green Eagles to Maintain Perfect Start
ZESCO United continued their impressive start to the season with a narrow 1-0 victory over Green Eagles at the Levy Mwanawasa Stadium, maintaining their perfect record in the league. A controversial penalty decision in the 24th minute proved decisive, as interim coach Emmanuel Siwale guided his team to another win.
Match Recap:
The only goal of the game came courtesy of Tandi Mwape, who converted the penalty that many in the stands felt was generously awarded. Despite Green Eagles’ protests and animated reactions, the referee stood firm in his decision. Mwape’s composed finish from the spot sent the home fans into a frenzy, singing praises for Siwale as if he had performed a miracle. Green Eagles battled throughout, but luck was not on their side as they failed to find the back of the net, leaving them with their first loss of the season.
With this win, ZESCO United now sit comfortably at the top of the table with a flawless record of three wins from three matches and a game in hand. The buzz around Ndola is whether Siwale, who has impressed in his interim role, deserves the permanent coaching position or if this run of form is merely a fleeting moment of fortune.
Green Eagles’ Struggle:
For Green Eagles, the defeat is a tough pill to swallow, especially as it marks their first loss of the campaign. However, losing to ZESCO at Levy Mwanawasa Stadium is almost expected, a rite of passage for many visiting teams. They remain in 8th place, eager to bounce back and prove that this setback was just a minor blip in their season.
What’s Next for ZESCO United?
As ZESCO United marches on, questions linger about whether Siwale is the right man for the job on a full-time basis. While the team’s current form suggests smooth sailing, fans are wary of potential bumps ahead. For now, though, Siwale is riding a wave of support as ZESCO continues to look like serious title contenders.
